Name

Metroserrapha Bechyné, 1958a – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

References

Bechyné 1958a[1]: 86; Doguet 1974[2]: 120; Biondi and D’Alessandro 2010a[3]: 410.

Type species

Metroserrapha prima Bechyné, 1958a: 86 (Mauritius Island), by original designation.

Distribution

Madagascar and the Mascarene Islands (Fig. 337).

Ecology

The species in this genus are probably polyphagous, and have been associated mainly with plants in the Ericaceae, Asteraceae and Polygonaceae (cf. Jolivet and Hawkeswood 1995[4]).

Notes

Seven species are known from the Mascarene Islands and about ten, as yet undescribed, from Madagascar (personal data).
